Lots and Lots to share.....

....starting last Friday....
Charlotte came to visit me...or actually she just wanted to go to the Posthumuswinkel and I live nearby ;).

We didn't have much time because we stayed in the stampshop toooooo long but at my place we played around a little with our new stamps, Ranger Distress Inks (which totally rule!) and Shrink Plastic (which also rules!).


Saturday was.... well.... Saturday.. quite boring; cleaning the house, doing some grocery shopping and visit my inlaws where we had dinner.


And then it was Sunday: WACKY WORKSHOP WEEKEND.

I went to 2 workshops from Celine Navarro, which were great. Just love the way she teaches ; she first takes her time to explain step by step what you can do with certain products... she doesn't just tell you what to do, she really shows it you in a patient and relaxing way. Love this!

The first class i took from her was "Mixed Media Art Journal" (not finished yet, will show it later..if I ever finish it - LOL)

The second was a "Collage Class" where she taught us how to use gesso to create texture on your paper / canvas. You can see the result above :).
That really smart literature lover who can tell me the title of the book from which I used the quote "I just noticed what a stupid haircut somebody gave her" on my collage :) will receive a big RAK from me
I will give a hint... a famous murderer had this book in his hand while shooting someone...
Actually the murderer became famous because he killed someone famous......
I need the title and the writer of the book and that RAK will be yours!
This RAK will include 1 of my Marbled Frida ATC's....
And no girls...if you took one of Celines classes at the WWW... you cannot play - LOL!

Oh wow, I love that collage... and I think I know the title of the book: It has to be The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger (loved that book, although I read it in Dutch...). :)
